Ok, these are great Dave. Really like #3 [open the larger version guys] The last one reminds me of my wife when I told her about me wanting to purchase my K20. [getting it tomorrow BTW] Nicely done Dave. JIM

Dave, that is a very funny series as well as good photography. The first and the last are in my eyes the best. What did you use? 55-300?

Thanks Heinrich - what I went there for was to pratice some birds in flight with the new to me Tamron 70-200 but the geese had other ideas very few took flight and those that did were so far away from me. I put the Pentax 1.7 TC on a little later , next time I will try the 55-300 and or Bigma.

Thanks Rense - indeed we have a couple of man made bodies of water that the geese pretty much stay at from spring to fall then of course head off to warmer pastures.

What a hoot! I LOVE the comments.

The geese in Delaware never seem to migrate. We call them freeloaders always looking for a handout but the advantage is that they don't mind photographers.

Thanks for the funny post!

Super series buddy; reminds me of the old ditty: "bend over and touch your toes and I'll show you where the wild goose goes . . . . . ."
